@itsmetoo - I initially suspected it was a gourd version of the pierced pumpkin, since that seems to be a trend with all the vendors this season, but I'm now thinking the design is pretty different even in the sliver we can see, so it may be a stack of two metal pumpkins. Either way, I'll definitely be watching for these items, as the only outdoor pumpkins I currently use are the real kind. I'd like to have something more decorative.

Yes, it does looked like it could be stacked pumpkins. I'll be curious to see what it is.  I use real pumpkins outside too.  Quite honestly, I would be kind of afraid to put something like this pierced pumpkin out front, afraid someone would steal it. I also really like the riser she is using under the big pumpkin.  I sure wish she would sell more of that kind of thing. 


@itsmetoo - If I purchased outdoor metal pumpkins, they'd definitely go in my backyard; even though I live in a relatively safe neighborhood, we have tons of problems with theft and vandalism of holiday decorations. It's ridiculous. I don't want to bother with hanging lights on my house, so I've wanted to get one of those light projector stakes since they debuted, but I'd never dare leave it out in my yard even if I were home. Sad.

 

And I, too, would love it if Valerie would offer more natural or "plain" versions of her decor pieces. She makes wonderful pedestals, stands, and racks, but I would want them in wood—not "rustic" or "distressed" but clean and pure—or stoneware or non-mercury glass.

Yep, that's how it is here too. We live in a nice and safe neighborhood but lots of kids who like to create havoc with holiday decorations.  I just wouldn't chance it out front.

I bet this is the one she is going to have. I may be in trouble because I 

really like it!  I so don't need any more pumpkins though!!

@itsmetoo - Yes, this is the one that was asked about on FB, and Valerie said it would be coming up at the beginning of September. I also really like it!


@loriqvc

 

I also like that it appears to be pretty big too.  Do you know what that is to the right of the yellow flowers?  Are those other pierced pumpkins?


@itsmetoo

@loriqvc,

What looks like orange stacking pumpkins is just that.  If you use this link to Valerie's qvc home page, then watch both the front door and entryway Harvest themed videos, you can see an orange and an ivory version.  They look resin to me.  Very interesting.

Remember that Valerie is on qvc2 the evening of 8/16 and on 8/17, so it seems she's having the Big Deal.  I really think it could be the stacking pumpkins, the pierced metal pumpkin, or perhaps a new wreath.

Thank you, @SHOPR! Oh, no, I love the stacked pumpkins too! I better get a part time job! I am kind of surprised she didn't have at least one of these designs on their big fall day. I hope I don't miss the presentation.

@SHOPR  Didn't Valerie say that the pierced pumpkin is coming in September?

Re: VPH Large Metal Pumpkin (Last Year)

@mousiegirl, Yes, I believe she did, so the metal pumpkin is likely not the Big Deal.  I was just thinking that it could be a logical item for the Big Deal, assuming the availability date comes a couple weeks earlier than she anticipated.

It does look really big.  I wonder how much it will be?  I hope it's not too pricey especially when it will probably be at least another $10 for shipping and tax.

Everyone,

I was curious about the pierced metal pumpkin's size so I went back to FB and looked at the replies.  Valerie said it is 15 inches diameter.  She also pinned down the specific dates in September when it will be presented--9/4 and 9/5.

Re: VPH Large Metal Pumpkin (Last Year)

@itsmetoo, I couldn't guess the price of the pierced metal pumpkin.  I was really shocked by the price of the stacked pumpkins that were already presented.  I would never have thought that would cost so much.
